Wool clothes (lingerie, wool, etc.) which may be easily damaged can be washed. (refer to page 18) The fibers of machine washable woolens have been specifically modified to prevent felting when they are machine washed. Most handknitted garments are not made of machine washable wool and we recommend that you hand wash them

• Before washing your woolens check the care label for the washing instructions.

• When washing woolens use a mild Detergent recommended for washing wool.

• Hand washed woolens may be spun in a washing machine to reduce the time they take to dry.

• To dry woolens lay down them flat on a towel and pat into shape. Dry woolens out of direct sunlight. (The heat and tumble action of a dryer may cause shrinkage or felting of woolen garments.) Some wool underlays and sheepskin products can be washed in a washing machine but may cause pump blockages. (Ensure that the whole article is suitable for machine washing and not just the backing material.) You may wish to handwash these articles and place them in the machine to spin dry.

Different types of laundry washing

Normal Wash

Pre Wash+

Washing laundry with Normal cycle that pretreats immediate stain without hand-wash. i.e. Necessary for clothes which could be smelled badly without prompt laundry. (refer to page 18)

Pre Wash+

Prepar ation Before Washing

• Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty. Things such as nails, hairclips, matches, pens, coins, and keys can damage both your washer and your clothes.

• Mend any torn garments or loose buttons. Tears or holes may become larger during washing.

• Remove belts, underwires, etc. to prevent damage to the machine or your clothes.

• Pretreat any dirt and stains.

• Make sure the clothes are washable in water.

• Check the washing instructions.

• Remove tissue in pockets.

To get the best results, different fabrics need to be washed in different ways.

• SOIL (Heavy, Normal, Light)

Separate clothes according to the type and amount of soil.

• COLOR (Whites, Lights, Darks) Separate white fabrics from colored fabrics.

• LINT (Lint producers, Collectors) Separate lint producers and lint collectors. Lint Producers Terry cloth, Chenille, Towels, Nappies, Diapers Lint Collectors Synthetics, Corduroy, Permanent Press, Socks

WIRE

Sorting

Check before Loading

* Look for a care label on your clothes. This will tell you about the fabric content of your garment

and how it should be washed. Sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle, Water Temperature and spin speed.

Care Labels

CAUTION

Long laundry items

Use nylon nets for long, DELICATE items. For laundry with long strings or long length, a net will prevent tangling during washing.

Fasten zippers, hook, and strings to make sure that these items don't

snag on other clothes.

Nylon net is not supplied by LG.

Light and Large-sized clothing

Clothes like downs and woollens are light weight, large and float easily. Use a nylon net and wash them in a small amount of water. If the laundry floats during the wash cycle, it may become damaged. Use dissolved Detergent to prevent the Detergent from clumping.

Do not wash fabrics containing flammable materials (waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.).

Load Size

The WATER LEVEL should just cover the clothes. Adjust the load size accordingly. Loosely load clothes no higher than the top row of holes in the washer tub. To add items after washer has started, press Start button and submerge additional items. Close the lid and press Start button again to restart.

Do not wash or spin any item labeled or known to be water-proof or water-resistant, even if the product care label on the item permits machine washing. Failure to follow these instructions could result in severe damage to

your laundry, your washer and/or property damage as a result of abnormal vibration of the washer.

- Examples of water-proof or water-resistant items include certain mattress pads, mattress covers, rain gear, camping gear, skiing apparel , outdoor gear and similar items.

• Use ‘PreWash+Normal’ cycle for very soiled clothes. In case of heavily soiled clothes, pretreatment may require before the cycle.

• Pretreat shirt collars and cuffs with a pre-wash product or liquid Detergent when placing them in the washer. Before washing treat special stains with bar soaps, liquid Detergent or a paste of water and granular Detergent.

• Use a pretreat soil and stain remover. Treat stains AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. The longer they are left the harder they are to remove. (For

more detail refer to page13)

Pretreatment on stains or heavy soil

WARNING

Fire Hazard

Never place items in the washer that are dampened with gasoline or other flammable fluids. No washer can completely remove oil. Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on it (including cooking oils). Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Use of W at er, Dispenser Dra wer, Det erg ent, Bleac h and Sof tener

• The machine sets the appropriate temperature automatically according to the wash Course.

• The temperature of the water impacts the effectiveness of all laundry additives and therefore, the cleaning results. We recommend temperatures of:

- HOT 49~60°C…(120-140˚F) White items, diapers, underclothing and heavily soiled, colorfast items.

- WARM 29~40°C…(85-105˚F) Most items

- COLD* 18~24°C…(65-75˚F) Only very bright colors with light soil.

• When washing in COLD water additional steps may be needed:

- Adjust Detergent amount and pre-dissolve Detergent in WARM water

- Pretreat spots and stains

- Soak heavily soiled items

- Use appropriate bleach

* Temperature below 18°C…(65˚F) will not activate laundry additives and may cause lint, residue, poor cleaning, etc.

In addition, Detergent manufactures and care labels define COLD water as 26~29°C…(80-85˚F). If the temperature of the water in the tub is too cold for your hands, the Detergent will not activate and clean effectively.

Water Temperature

Using Water

Using Dispenser Drawer’

• This machine detects the quantity of laundry automatically, then sets the Water Level and proper amount of Detergent.

• When you select a wash Course, the Water Level will be shown on the control panel.

• The following table shows the amount of water.

• When the Water Level is automatically detected, it may differ depending on the quantity of laundry even though the same Water Level is indicated on the control panel.

Amount of WATER LEVEL

Using the Dispenser Drawer

NOTE

If iron is present in the water the clothes may become an all-over yellow or they may be stained with brown or orange spots or streaks. Iron is not always visible. Installation of water softener or an iron filter may be necessary for severe cases.

NOTE

[ Minimum water amount ]

It depends on laundry load and washer model. Or manually you can pour a certain amount water into tub directly to some height. That’s because if water level reaches to the some height sensed by washer itself, washer automatically operates. In other words, it is needed to pour water to the point when washer starts operating.

The dispenser drawer contains 2 compartments:

• Liquid Fabric Softener

• Liquid or Powder Low-Sudsing, High-Efficiency Detergent

The dispenser automatically dispenses additives at the proper time in the wash cycle.

1. Slowly open the dispenser drawer by pulling the drawer out until it stops.

2. After adding laundry products, slowly close the dispenser drawer. Closing the

drawer too quickly could result in early dispensing of additives.

• Avoid overfilling or splashing when adding laundry products to the dispenser. Doing so could result in early dispensing of laundry products.

At the end of the cycle, you may see water in the compartments. This is part of the normal operation of the washer.

NOTE : Do not use bleach in the dispenser drawer.

How much Detergent

The correct amount of Detergent will vary depending on the amount of soil in your clothes (Jeans and work clothes may need more Detergent, while bath towels usually need less.). For liquid and concentrated Detergents, follow the recommendations of the Detergent manufacturer.

Note: To check you are using the correct amount of Detergent, lift the lid of your machine about halfway through the wash. There should be a thin layer of foam over the surface of the water. Lots of foam may look good, but it does not contribute to cleaning your clothes. No foam means not enough Detergent has been used; soil and lint can settle back on the clothes or the washing machine. If excess Detergent is used, the rinse will not be as clean and efficient. Also, it could cause environmental pollution, so use it accordingly.

Add measured detergent to the detergent compartment of the dispenser drawer.

Detergent is flushed through the dispenser at the beginning of the wash phase. Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water temperature, water hardness, size and soil level of the load.

Avoid using too much detergent in your washer, as it can lead to oversudsing and detergent residue being left on the clothes.

Adding Detergent

Using Detergent

Detergent

Follow the Detergent package directions. Using too little Detergent is a common cause of laundry problems. Use more Detergent if you have hard water, large loads, greasy or oily soils or lower Water Temperature.

Choosing the right Detergent

We recommend the use of domestic Detergent, (powder, liquid or concentrated). Soap flakes or granulated soap powders should not be used in your washing machine. When washing woolens remember to use Detergent suitable for washing woolens.

Attention

Using liquid detergent without diluting, or leaving laundry for a long time after pouring diluted liquid detergent into the tub might cause damage, bleaching or discoloration of cloth.

Note : Using Liquid detergent

- Dilute Liquid detergent with water and pour into the tub, start the cycle.

- Delay wash course is not available if you use liquid detergent.

Use of W at er, Dispenser Dra wer, Det erg ent, Bleac h and Sof tener

Using Fabric Softener

If you wish to use fabric softener we recommend

Attention

Do not mix with Detergent or bleach. Never pour fabric softener directly on clothes. It may stain them. Do not stop the washer during the first spin for timely dispensing. Option washing is not designed to be used with fabric softener dispenser.

If desired, pour the recommended amount of liquid fabric softener into the right-hand compartment.

Use only liquid fabric softener. Dilute with water to the maximum fill line.

• Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can cause early dispensing of the fabric

softener, which could stain clothes. NOTE : Do not pour fabric softener directly on the

wash load. It may stain the clothes.

Scrud(Waxy Build up)

Scrud is the name given to the waxy build-up that can occur within any washer when the fabric softener comes into contact with Detergent. This build-up is not brought about by a fault in the machine.

If scrud is allowed to build-up in the machine it can result in stains on your clothes or an unpleasant smell in your washer.

• Using fabric softener sparingly.

• When filling the dispenser, do not splash or overfill.

• Clean dispenser as soon as the cycle is finished.

• Clean your machine regularly. (refer to page 23 or 34)

• Cold water washing increases the chance of this build-up occurring. We recommend a regular WARM or HOT wash e.g. every 5th wash should be at least a warm one.

• Fabric softener of thinner consistency is less likely to leave residue on the dispenser and contribute to a build-up.

Bleach dispenser

• Check clothing care label for special instructions and separate the

laundry to be bleached

• Dilute liquid chlorine bleach.

• Measure the recommended amount of liquid bleach carefully

following instructions on the bottle.

• Before starting the washer, pour measured amount of bleach directly

into bleach dispenser. Avoid splashing or overfilling. Powdered bleach should be mixed with water before pouring.

Using Liquid Bleach

NOTE

Never pour undiluted liquid bleach directly onto clothes or into the wash basket. This may cause change of color or damage the laundry. Do not pour powdered bleach into bleach dispenser.

Special Guide for Stain Removal

For successful stain removal:

• Remove stains promptly.

• Use ‘PreWash+Normal’ cycle for very soiled clothes. In case of heavily soiled clothes, pretreatment may require before the cycle.

• Determine the kind of stain, then follow the recommended treatment in the stain removal chart below.

• To pretreat stains, use a prewash product, liquid Detergent, or a paste made from granular Detergent and water.

• Use COLD water on unknown stains because HOT water can set stains.

• Check care label instructions for treatments to avoid on specific fabrics.

• Check for colorfastness by testing stain remover on an inside seam.

• Rinse and wash items after stain removal.

Follow fabric care

label instructions

WARNING

TREATMENT

CAUTION concerning the Power Cord

Most appliances recommend they be placed upon a dedicated circuit; that is, a single outlet circuit which powers only that appliance and has no additional outlets or branch circuits. Check the specification page of this owner's manual to be certain. Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of these conditions could result in electric shock or fire. Periodically examine the cord of your appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of the appliance, and have the cord replaced with an exact replacement part by an authorized servicer. Protect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets, and the point where the cord exits the appliance.
